Celebrate the Beauty of the UK National Parks: 2025 Photography Competition Now Open - National Parks UK

The UK’s fifteen National Parks are once again calling on photographers of all abilities to capture the magic of these treasured landscapes as the 2025 National Parks Photography Competition officially opens for entries.

Now in its fourth year, and proudly supported by Sykes Holiday Cottages, the competition offers amateur and professional photographers the chance to win one of two fantastic prize bundles worth over £300 each. More than just a celebration of stunning photography, the competition champions conservation and invites people to engage meaningfully with the natural world this summer.

Whether it’s the wild beauty of Cairngorms, the dramatic peaks of Eryri, or the peaceful waterways of the Broads, the competition encourages everyone to explore, appreciate and protect the unique character of the National Parks.

Launched in 2021, the competition was created to highlight not only the beauty but also the importance of the UK National Parks in the face of global challenges. As we tackle the climate and biodiversity crises, our National Parks are leading the approach to landscape scale nature restoration with nature-based solutions that benefit people, place, nature and climate.
